This is where you will be staying and where I love to live! the house is located just a few blocks north of an active commercial district with a bookstore, coffeeshop, pizzeria, two bars/music venues, a smokehouse, a fitness gym, etc.
The neighborhood is fairly progressive with a mix of students, young professionals, families, seniors, and local business owners. There are many community urban gardens nearby and a farmers market every Wednesday.
